Leeds United close in on Chris Wood signing?

Leeds United are close to signing Leicester City striker Chris Wood for £2m, according to a report.

Leeds United are reportedly close to completing the signing of Chris Wood from Leicester City.

The striker has fallen down the pecking order at the King Power Stadium since Leicester's promotion to the Premier League last year.

The 23-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan at Ipswich Town.

Wood has been linked with Wolverhampton Wanderers and a switch to Queens Park Rangers in recent weeks.

According to the Daily Mail, Leeds and Wolves have had £2m bids accepted by Leicester, and Wood has decided that he will move to Elland Road ahead of the new season on a four-year contract.

Wood has netted 20 goals in 62 appearances for Leicester since joining them from West Bromwich Albion in 2013.
